Hey honey! I have missed you! I am soooooo happy that you are getting back to normal! What a blessing!

I WILL NEVER give up on REMISSION - EVER! I know there is a reason for everything, and I have this for a reason, but I also believe in prayer and miracles! I am actually excited about getting either a port or shunt - that way I can have all of my lab work done through it! I am a bit nervous, but if I can handle the thymectomy, the port or shunt should be a walk in the park!

I think back to when I was really weak and thank God for my strength now! Every day! Every night! I am truly grateful for EVERY DAY on this earth!

THank you for checking in!

Love,
Erin

Connie, I had an accupuncturist here that I was seeing that practice a Japanese form of accupuncture and herbal treatments. It was amazing and he and I had many discussions about the differences between western medicine and traditional medicine - if only they could use a blend of the 2 I really feel that so much could be different! I unfortunately moved and can't even kind of easily get to him anymore, but I really feel he was helping.

Erin, you poor baby! I read about you getting the implant and I'm glad for you on that, but geez! I guess we all need to be sending some stronger vibes to you to getting to that remission. If your doc does try to prepare you for that not happening, you just keep one thing in mind - many sights and MG specialists say 2 - 5 years after thymectomy and some even say 10!!! - And there's always the spontaneous remission as well. So don't yo give up hope! No matter what - you WILL get there!

Lizzie, it's so good to hear that you are getting around some. Any new miracles in the works for you? I still smile every time I remember your post about your heart! You are such a wonderful person, it was well deserved - and more!

Mary, how are you doing? any new developements for you? Any results on all the blood work yet?

All of you - gotta get off now, I haven't even had dinner and it's 9 pm here! - I miss you, and love reading the posts. Welcome to all you that are new, and I'm so sorry I don't have more time to spend tonight.

Love to all.
